"I believe that what happens to us is not as important as how we respond to what happens to us. Whatever it is that you are going through it can have meaning for you. Choosing to listen to your suffering and what it is trying to tell you can guide you back to authenticity and a life that is conscious and connected. I do not use techniques. The sessions are spontaneous and client centred.

"Our efforts to protect ourselves from painful feelings often lead to greater suffering. Fleeing from our emotional truth, we unconsciously perpetuate the very distress we seek to avoid, repeating unhealthy relationships or self-destructive patterns of living. We may find ourselves overwhelmed by anxiety, anger, despair or emptiness, feeling like our lives are not our own.
It takes courage to explore our feeling-life and face the emotional truth of our past and present. I offer a safe, reliable and uniquely human environment in which to cultivate future possibilities of integration, spontaneity, creativity and self-realization, to fully inhabit life."

These could be a history of trauma, invalidating relationships, habits that no longer serve us, or environments that may hinder our psychological growth. I can help you identify obstacles to your quality of life, develop strategies to tackle them, and set goals to increase and maintain your well-being."

"It seems to be... that part of being human is to get stuck sometimes. (Despite our best intentions, we fall into bewildering ruts- we repeat frustrating patterns that make us, and often the people we love, unhappy.) Talking with a psychotherapist can help you get unstuck, and back on the path of more vital, satisfying, creative living. Psychotherapy is a very specialized conversation- deep, confidential, and focused on you. The conversation starts simply enough, with the question:"

"Reasons for starting therapy are many: depression and anxiety, trauma, disordered eating habits, and self-defeating behaviours. Therapy is a process whereby the client is encouraged to examine her or his life story. The therapist requires tenderness and maturity in working with clients, allowing them to express, in their own time, anger, shame, frustration-any number of emotions-so that healing and transformation can happen and they can come to see themselves as unique human beings. Therapy helps clients accept what is broken in themselves by opening to new possibilities and freeing themselves from old patterns."

"Do you sometimes experience struggle in your life because of conflict between what you find erotic and your personal values? Do you have problems in relationships because of your sexual behaviours or interests? Do you wonder if you have an 'addiction' to sex or pornography and feel that your sexual behaviours might be out of control? Or, do you struggle with a decrease in your desire for intimacy, have problems with sexual arousal or struggle with performance anxiety ? If you find yourself saying 'yes' to any of these questions, treatment with a qualified sex and relationship therapist like myself might be right for you."

"Understanding why and how we react or feel the way we do in relationships with others is a step towards a healthy, grounded, and fulfilled place in the world. Working with a trained psychotherapist will help you explore your life with different lenses and introduce alternative choices and pathways. I seek to help people who wish to break out of patterns and behaviours that keep them feeling stuck in their lives."

"I am a relational psychotherapist who works to help clients find a sense of empowerment around the issues that are troubling them, to help them explore and understand the meaning and impact of these experiences, and to find change. I draw on many theories, and work particularly in a psychodynamic way (seeing how one is impacted in the present by one's past experiences). With clients who would like to work on childhood issues, I help them resolve and integrate those experiences - family issues, relationship issues, trauma. Together we decide whether short or long term work is preferred."

"I believe that we are all shaped by our early environments. If our early environments were narcissistic, chaotic, unsafe or created by addictive behaviours, the conditions to thrive in were less than optimal. These failures in development can keep us stuck, impeding our growth as creative and vital individuals. If your feelings have become unmanageable, are struggling to fully engage in the world or are having difficulty establishing and maintaining relationships, therapy could be of help to you. I know, from personal experience, that taking the first step to enter into a therapeutic alliance is a courageous one."
